Giants in the Earth - Part 2: The Child (The Caliban Cycle Book 1)

Tom Caliban grows up in the shadow of his mother’s mysterious death, raised by his grandfather in the small town of Junction in South Alabama. Darkness haunts the boy, who shows a talent for fixing things but ever remains an outsider. Unaware of Tom or his connection to their shapeshifting enemy, British occultist Sir Arthur Magus meets each year with the men who helped him battle with the Changeling — but distrust begins to grow between them.

A traveling preacher walks into Junction one summer day, shouldering a rugged cross and promising souls to his unseen Lord. A black dog is sighted, and a man in black stirs fear in the midnight hours. And as Becca’s child reaches his 18th birthday, a new church rises on the site of the Changeling's pyre — and a girl goes missing in Junction.
